1037 Longfellow Avenue, Bronx, NY 10459

The 4-unit, 2-story tenement building at 1037 Longfellow Avenue in Longwood, owned by Gregory Pinn, was constructed in 1930 and has experienced several maintenance issues, particularly in 2022. The most significant cluster of problems occurred between March and August 2022, including multiple reports of heat and hot water failures, electrical wiring concerns, and various structural problems affecting doors, windows, floors, and walls.

In August 2022, the building received multiple emergency maintenance code complaints requiring attention to issues such as mold, electrical wiring, flooring, doors, and plumbing. A particular concentration of violations was documented for Apartment 2, including problems with plaster surfaces, electrical wiring, door hardware, and water leaks, with several open violations recorded as of August 2022. The building's more recent history shows improvements in general maintenance, with no reported bedbug infestations between 2021 and 2024 (as per the bedbug reporting requirements) and consistent passing results on rodent inspections from 2010 through 2017.

As of April 2024, there is one open violation related to the annual bedbug report filing requirement, though this appears to be an administrative issue rather than representing an active infestation. The building's maintenance record shows a pattern of timely responses to service requests, with all documented complaints being investigated and resolved by HPD, though many involved repeated issues being reported through multiple complaints. The property has also maintained regular compliance with the NYC Housing Maintenance Code's bedbug reporting requirements over the past five years.
